In healthcare environments, cleaning isn’t just about appearance; it’s a critical part of keeping patients, staff, and visitors safe.
The SSH Group was recently appointed to deliver a multi-area clean at a busy hospital site. The scope encompassed the hallways, waiting rooms, toilets, and high-traffic floor areas, all of which were completed while the hospital remained operational.
This job required sensitivity, planning, and a deep understanding of how to deliver cleaning services in clinical settings without disrupting patient care.
Hospitals present a unique set of demands when it comes to cleaning:
- Constant footfall, including vulnerable patients, clinical staff, and contractors
- Multiple risk zones, each requiring different cleaning approaches and materials
- Tight scheduling windows, especially in corridors and waiting rooms, where downtime is minimal
- Compliance with hygiene protocols, including infection control and waste segregation
Every area cleaned had to meet hospital-grade standards and be returned to use immediately after work was complete.
What We Delivered
The SSH Cleaning team completed the following across four active hospital zones:
- Hallways: Deep floor clean and polish using hospital-safe chemicals, with signage and traffic management during works
- Main hospital floor area: Targeted degreasing and surface sanitisation, including mop heads, edging, and skirting
- Toilets: Full sanitisation of sanitaryware, walls, flooring, and contact points (handles, flushes, dispensers)
- Waiting room: Dusting, vacuuming, chair frame wipe-downs, and floor sanitation carried out during off-peak hours
All cleaning was completed with infection-control-safe products and signed off by a supervisor onsite. Our team worked in phased shifts to maintain patient access and prevent disruption to clinical staff.
Results
- Cleaned and returned to use, all areas reopened immediately following each phase
- Improved hygiene and presentation in high-traffic and public-facing zones
- Zero disruption to clinical services during delivery
This project reflects SSH’s ability to deliver consistent, professional cleaning services in critical healthcare environments, with full compliance, clear communication, and operational care.
